  One of the best doctors I have ever encountered in my life..., Mar 16, 2011

Marina is a knowledgeable doctor whom I always trust with my health. She has a very convenient location in Upper East Side that is just a block away from my home. Her staff is very responsible and friendly (they even mail me birthday cards).

  Great surgeon for laparoscopic surgery for gallbladder..., May 25, 2012

Dr. McDearmont did a terrific job and his staff was friendly as well. I would highly recommend him for anyone needing laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. The recovery was seamless and I was back to work in three days!
  Creationist, not Scientist, Overprescribes antibiotics..., Mar 19, 2012

If you want to wait forever to get in to see your child's doctor, to have anti-biotics prescribed willy-nilly, or to visit with doctors who believe in creationism and not science then ABC Pediatrics is your practice. My oldest daughter has constant sinus infections, so I took her to an allergist to see if there was an environmental cause for her illness', and in the course of reviewing her medicines, lots of anti-biotics and a steroid. I have been given cause to doubt that she has been treated effectively. One Saturday I took my oldest daughter in for a sick visit, she was complaining about an ear ache, to the Alameda office, where I see that Dr. Gregory Guthrie has stocked all of his examination rooms with the creationist clap-trap, "The Great Dinosaur Mystery and the Bible." I had seen this book in an office on a previous visit, but mistakenly thought another parent had left it there. Now that I've seen this in another room, alongside with other tomes from the Bay Area Fellowship, alarm bells start ringing in my head. And a conversation with Dr. Guthrie, "I put that book in all my waiting rooms," and three different scripts for anti-biotics convinced me that I never want to see him near my child again. On Ash Wednesday I had a 2:45 appointment scheduled with my regular pediatrician, Dr. Tessa Perez at the Saratoga office, for my youngest daughter's 4 month check-up. I was finally brought back to the doctor's office at 4:10 (I have to pick up my oldest at school by 4:30, a fact I brought to the intake nurse starting at 3:30). I brought up Dr. Guthrie to Dr. Perez and she defended him, and proceeded to explain to me that she was a "conservative Catholic who didn't believe in evolution" and that everything that I was taught about evolution by Father Norris in my 11th grade Catholic Dogma class was wrong. And now it's 4:23, I have 7 minutes to make my 7 minute drive to pick-up my oldest daughter, and no time to get my youngest's immunizations.
  This practice has very poor service no matter how you look at it...., Feb 8, 2012

Dealing with this practice is only about making money. Everything is oriented around getting you to come in frequently and doing tests. The staff is rude and I will not use nor recommend this practice.

Great experience. Great value. i would not go anywhere else for all my non surgical procedure! I had a blepharoplasty done and I do botox for the past 8 years. Im very happy with his work and service
  poor service, inaccurate information, disregard for patient values or input..., Dec 17, 2011

I am a white male in my 30s. I was operated on by Dr. McLemore for anal hpv. I do not recommend Dr. McLemore unless you are very desperate. I trusted her too much. She cut me up really bad and caused me unreasonable amounts of pain. She destroyed a lot of healthy tissue and I felt this was unnecessary. She never apologized or admitted that she made a mistake. She was unsympathetic and uncaring toward me when I was distraught and in pain. She was often impatient, cold, antagonistic and stubborn. She didn't seem to care about the pain or anxiety she caused me. She became antagonistic toward me and called me a risk to her practice because I felt I had had complications from the surgery. Some people love her, but I think if you have a bad experience, she will turn against you and become mean and uncaring.
